19th International Hessen Rundfahrt - 2.4Germany, October 4-8, 2000Main Page Results Previous stage Stage 4a - October 7: Korbach - Marburg, 129.0 kmTombak gets two from twoEstonian Janek Tombak repeated his win of stage 3 by taking the morning's 129 km leg from Korbach to Marburg. The Cofidis sprinter beat Klaus Mutschler (Team Coast) and Andreas Beikirch (Agro Adler) after a fast paced race. Overnight leader, Roger Beuchat (Post Swiss) lost 28 minutes to finish with the back bunch and completely drop out of contention. His compatriot, Rene Stadelmann (Phonak) took over in the meantime. The decisive break came after 60 kilometres in Frankenberg, when 29 riders escaped. Most teams were well represented and there was no effort to chase. However, race leader Beuchat missed it and was forced to sit in the bunch while his hard earned gap was annihilated. 12 of the leading group were only separated by 38 seconds, making for an interesting finale.
